Online A-Level Biology Tutor

A-level Biology Online Tutoring. . . . Learn how to improve your grades

A-level Biology is an extremely challenging subject, there is a huge body of difficult content to learn and understand. The new style questions test understanding and application more than factual recall, many students find this a big change from what they were comfortable with at GCSE.

My goal is to get students to understand why and how a biological process is occuring, rather than trying to rote learn the steps. While tutoring in person, I use a tablet loaded with all the relevant PowerPoints and past papers and a digital whiteboard. After a full explanation of the topic, I go through relevant past paper questions and try to coach what the question is actually asking about, how it relates to the theory and how to phrase the answer for full credit.

Online, I use an HD Webcam, a graphics tablet and video conferencing with a super-fast broadband connection. I use an excellent web-conferencing program, where both parties can see and annotate notes and past papers and PowerPoints, it is an extremely effective tutoring tool.

Online tutorials are recorded and shared with the tutee, so they can be re-viewed and used for revision. Prior to the tutorial, I give the students notes and PowerPoints to go through so faster progress can be made during the session
